Marketing Restrictions and Implications

Lyxor UCITS compliant Exchange Traded Funds (Lyxor UCITS ETFs) referred
to on this website are open ended mutual investment funds (i) established under
French law and approved by the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (the
French Financial Markets Authority), or (ii) established under Luxembourg law
and approved by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the
Luxembourg Financial Supervisory Committee). Most, if not all, of the
protections provided by theFinnish regulatory system generally and for
funds authorised in Finland do not apply to these exchange traded funds (ETFs).
In particular, investors should note that holdings in this product will not be
covered by the provisions of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme or by the
Finnish Investors’ Compensation Fund.

This website is exclusively intended for persons who are not "US
persons", as such term is defined in Regulation S or the US Securities Act
1933, as amended, and who are not physically present in the US. This website
does not constitute an offer or an invitation to purchase any securities in the
United States or in any other jurisdiction in which such offer or
invitation is not authorised or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make
such offer or solicitation. Potential users of this website are requested to
inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions.

However, most Lyxor UCITS ETFs follow synthetic replication process.
This consists of entering into a derivative transaction (a ‘Performance Swap’,
as defined below) with a counterparty that provides complete and effective
exposure to its benchmark index. Lyxor has adopted this methodology in order to
minimise tracking error, optimise transaction costs and reduce operational
risks.

A Performance Swap is a contractual agreement which is negotiated
over-the-counter (OTC) between two parties: the Lyxor UCITS ETF and its counterparty.
From a risk perspective, each Performance Swap ranks equally with other senior
unsecured obligations of the counterparty, such as common bonds (i.e., same
rights to payments). In the Performance Swap, the counterparty of the Lyxor
UCITS ETF commits to pay the Lyxor UCITS ETF a variable return based on a
pre-determined benchmark index, instead of a fixed stream of income (as in
bonds). At the same time, the counterparty will receive from the Lyxor UCITS
ETF the performance and any related revenues generated by the basket's assets
(excluding the value of the Performance Swap) held by the Lyxor UCITS ETF.
Information provided on individual ETFs includes data on the basket relating to
the ETF and the percentage value of the basket represented by each asset. The
information is relevant to the closing values on the date given.

Investment Risks

The Lyxor UCITS ETFs described on this website are not suitable for
everyone. Investors' capital is at risk. Investors should not deal in this
product unless they understand, having obtained independent professional advice
where necessary, its nature, terms and conditions, and the extent of their
exposure to risk. The value of the product can go down as well as up and can be
subject to volatility due to factors such as price changes in the underlying
instrument and interest rates. If a fund is quoted in a different currency to
the index, currency risks exist.

Prior to any investment in any Lyxor UCITS ETF, you should make your own
appraisal of the risks from a financial, legal and tax perspective, without
relying exclusively on the information provided by us. We recommend that you
consult your own independent professional advisors (including legal, tax,
financial or accounting advisors, as appropriate).

Specific Risks

·Capital at Risk. ETFs are tracking instruments: Their
risk profile is similar to a direct investment in the Benchmark Index.
Investors’ capital is fully at risk and investors may not get back the amount
originally invested. Investments are not covered by the provisions of the
Financial Services Compensation Scheme (“FSCS”), the Finnish Investors’
Compensation Fund or any similar scheme.

·Counterparty Risk. Investors may be exposed to risks
resulting from the use of an OTC Swap with Societe Generale. Physical ETFs may
have Counterparty Risk resulting from the use of a Securities Lending
Programme.

·Currency Risk. ETFs may be exposed to currency risk
if the ETF or Benchmark Index holdings are denominated in a currency different
to that of the Benchmark Index they are tracking. This means that exchange rate
fluctuations could have a negative or positive effect on returns.

·Replication Risk. ETFs are designed to replicate the
performance of the Benchmark Index. Unexpected events relating to the constituents
of the Benchmark Index may impact the Index provider’s ability to calculate the
Benchmark Index, which may affect the ETF’s ability to replicate the Benchmark
Index efficiently. This may create Tracking Error in the ETF.

·Underlying Risk. The Benchmark Index of a Lyxor ETF
may be complex and volatile. When investing in commodities, the Benchmark Index
is calculated with reference to commodity futures contracts which can expose
investors to risks related to the cost of carry and transportation. ETFs
exposed to Emerging Markets carry a greater risk of potential loss than
investment in Developed Markets as they are exposed to a wide range of
unpredictable Emerging Market risks.

·Liquidity Risk. On-exchange liquidity may be limited
as a result of a suspension in the underlying market represented by the
Benchmark Index tracked by the ETF; a failure in the systems of one of the
relevant stock exchanges, Societe Generale or other Market Maker systems; or an
abnormal trading situation or event.

The securities can be neither offered in nor transferred to the United
States.

Tax

Any statement in relation to tax, where made, is
generic and non-exhaustive and is based on our understanding of the laws and
practice in force as of the date of this document and is subject to any changes
in law and practice and the interpretation and application thereof, which
